When I was really little I loved the Carl books, they had no words, so I think my dad had a lot fun reading them to me all I did was bark.
I also liked Clifford, and Madeline.
But my favorite one has the to the Pony Pal series I actually still read them today, I only need seven more till I have them all. It's also a lot of fun to torture my Dad with them since I made him read them to me for almost three years.

I second this!
I learned reading with Pippi, and I guess I only learned reading because I so wanted to read that book all by myself! You can still tell by the state of that book... I loved all her books so much, I probably read each more than 20 times... 
Other than that I really loved a german author, Erich Kästner, but I am afraid you won't have heard of him.

LM Montgomery and Laura Ingalls Wilder! I have loved both of their books from the time I was eight. I enjoy reading their books to my own children now. One of my daughters has "Laura" for a middle name because I loved her books so much.
|
How could I forget about Laura! *bangs head* She was my one and only (ok, not only, but still one of my favourites) in my childhood! I believe I read all of her books. I loved them so much! When I was playing I often pretended I was her  These books are really fascinating. Ahh, the memory...

That would be the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. Author is obvious.

Do not speak to us of the greatness of poetry,
Of the torches wisping in the underground,
Of the structure of vaults upon a point of light.
There are no shadows in our sun,
Day is desire and night is sleep.
There are no shadows anywhere.

Hmmm this is a hard one there were so many...
I love the "help me be good books" can't remember the author but they were very helpful when dealing with tough situations when i was 8-9 lol
Dr. Seuss takes the cake for this...Green eggs and ham!!
Would you like them in a box would you like them with a fox, would you like them here or there would you like them anywhere? Cat in the hat, 1 fish, 2 fish, red fish, blue fish, and the Lorax!

No one should stand alone...

Yes I loved those too!! And the TV Series too.
And I also really liked the "Hanni und Nanni" books. I have many of the books and read them over and over when I was younger. These books made me feel happy because the girls were so brave and happy.
Oh yeah, I also liked "Die drei ? " (there should be 3 ? there but it turns it into a smiley  ) and I devoured the "Was ist Was???" series which are books on many different topics like Mummies, Jewellery, Cars, anything really, with pictures and text and I always always went to the Library and got them out. I still have the one about Egypt and the Mummies. I was fascinated with Egypt and still am!
There were so many books I read as a kid and I still read about a book a week. I have way too many books.
